The pan when first removed
And after a bit of cleaning
The width across the curve is supposed to be 4 7/8 inches
The front needed a bit of tweaking to get it there
The leak can be seen where the cork is supposed to push against the block
After the leak is found the rest of it looks pretty nice under there
Heads ground off these 5/16 - 18 x 2 bolts make great dowel alignment pins
Screwed into the block second in from the end on each corner,
the sump can be aligned and pushed straight up ino position
Or so I thought, the steering shaft needs its guide undone so it can be pulled out of the way
With the sump tightened back in place and the steering shaft back where it normally resides
The front motor mount has been loose at some point since it was built 70 years ago
The narrow front parts tractor had that piece with holes that had never been used
The oil pan gasket no longer leaks but a drip pan is still needed under the hydraulic hose
